| - In showbiz, you have the male performer and his lovely assistant. A Lovely Assistant is just that, an attractive girl or woman who assists the performer or primary host. This can be by fetching things, being the object of whatever the performer is to do, giving out prizes, handling the lottery equipment, or doing minor performances herself. But primarily, her job is to look good, strike attractive poses, and give the performer room to do his thing. The clothing can vary from modest but sexy to outright Stripperiffic. Examples:
- Little bitch. She had it coming. I know everyone calls us freaks, but this was different. She was coming on to me, not the other way around. I had walked into her camper after all the 'normal people' left. Went to say 'goodnight' if you get what I mean. She was fine with the sweet talkin' and the friendly massage, if you will. But when I leaned in for a simple goodnight kiss, that bitch turned on me. Slapping me across my "filthy mug" as she called it. She called me a... she... she called me a "fuckin' cyclops!"

After all the time we'd been performing together! My so-called lovely assistant wouldn't be anyone's anything for much longer. The show had always been a bit dangerous, and she didn't suspect a thing. A little necklace, a bouquet of roses, and a well-rehearsed apology can be pretty convincing I suppose. Nobody will miss the little bitch, and I doubt anyone can expect much accuracy from a drunken, one-eyed knife thrower.
- In showbiz, you have the male performer and his lovely assistant. A Lovely Assistant is just that, an attractive girl or woman who assists the performer or primary host. This can be by fetching things, being the object of whatever the performer is to do, giving out prizes, handling the lottery equipment, or doing minor performances herself. But primarily, her job is to look good, strike attractive poses, and give the performer room to do his thing. The clothing can vary from modest but sexy to outright Stripperiffic. A variation appears in a Stage Magician's show, where there are practical reasons for small, female assistants in tight-fitting clothes. Some physical-displacement type tricks (moving boxes, sawing a person in half) require the person to be quite small in order to fit into the device (most magic equipment is designed for an assistant who's 5′2″ tall). The same is true of quick-change acts, where the model must be small enough to wear many layers of trick clothing without appearing bulky. In these cases the "assistant" is an integral part of the act who requires skill and training, but plays off the audience expectations that she is nothing but eye candy in order to set up the trick and make the magician look impressive. Some common roles of the Lovely Assistant are as co-host of a game show, a Stage Magician's assistant or object for tricks, or the target of a Knife-Throwing Act. Compare Bridge Bunnies and Foil. See also Distracted by the Sexy, which is one of their main roles. Almost Always Female (even if the magician is female herself). Examples:
